He's going to find himself being investigated by the SEC soon for manipulation. Also another interesting question, why does he always make these posts outside of market hours?

I’m not sure why he does. Way back when he was interrogated in front of congress. But he is definitely loud and proud right now.

I like that he discloses his position. So many manipulators don’t.

Edit: I really always should say that the biggest manipulation of the market in the last 10 years was when they made several securities Position Close Only for almost a week straight. Just wild.

If he is really a man of the people and average retail traders then he would post things during market hours so most retail traders could jump on board. Instead he does just like industry insiders and posts outside of trading hours which can benefit him and leave retail traders holding the bag, I bet we will see that he made a pretty big sell off this morning.

I was shocked he bought his most recent calls after he came back in May. On Superstonk we were speculating it was UBS buying all those $20 calls in an attempt to clear the Credit Suisse bags. Last week - Almost every trading day towards the end of day someone kept buying 5K contracts at $20 strike (which was ITM).

Turns out that the whale doing that was him.

My guess would be because of less trading volume, it’s easier to manipulate.

Bingo. Advantage to him and huge disadvantage to retail traders.

The big question I have is how he went from 800,000 shares to 5 million shares while being silent for 3 years.

He went silent June 21 2021 until this past May. At the time he had 200K shares. Then with the stock split that would turn into 800K shares.

We can’t find where any whale went that big during his his meme tweets in those two weeks in May.

One idea is he sold his 800K shares when it was around $50 a share in late June 2021. Then if he just played the market safely for a couple of years and went back all in when GameStop hit $10 a share shortly after Q1 earnings. But that’s just an idea. Who knows what he did.

Interestingly, had GameStop not diluted 45 million shares recently, then if DFV found a way to exercise his call options then he would be at exactly 5% ownership of a multibillion dollar company and would have had to file a 13D.

I get all the takes on this situation and I’m sure I’m biased. But this is just incredible how one dude in his basement turned a 50K yolo into more than a 200 million dollars in net worth.

So, Citron just went loud and proud themselves (but on the short side), now believes there is no way DFV was able to build this capital himself, and suggests there is a 2nd shooter from the grassy knoll.

Someone placed a million dollar bet on a GME $43 call for June 7th. I wonder if it would be ManIpuLaTiOn if they went public with it.

 

[Turfie]

DFV going live tomorrow at 12pm eastern. During market hours.

 

[Turfie]

DFV hasn’t sold yet. His portfolio value is now at $586 million. I wonder if he will exercise his calls on the live stream. E*Trade might be up the creek if they failed to hedge.

That portfolio will worth over a billion if the price holds.

The entire thing is insane. He sat quiet for 3 years. All while big production movies/documentaries were made. Not one interview. Just quiet.

He’s been sending hidden messages in his tweets too. Check this tweet out:

On the surface it looks just like a hype tweet. But about 2/3rds through the video there is a weird audio sound.

Some diehards on superstonk ran it through an audio signal program and it produced this:



The level of detail in everything he has done is remarkable.

Seems like it’s on its way to beat the mid 60 intraday high a couple weeks ago. If he exercises his calls at that price, that’s 12 million shares someone has to find to cover. Could push the price even higher.
